Christian Science nursing care, privacy, and the expectancy of healing
A skilled Christian Science nurse is available round-the-clock to address any need related to the well-being of individuals who are relying solely on Christian Science for healing. Our Christian Science nurses minister to each patient’s human needs with an unwavering commitment to “behold(ing) the perfect man” (Christian Science Hymnal, 370).
Our Christian Science nurses perform the following tasks:
- Assess individual care needs based on the patient’s demonstrated ability

- Assist with mobility (getting up, walking, lifting, etc.)
- Assist with nourishment (and modifications, as needed)
